mircea_popescu: mod6 well done on fixing it! and yes it makes sense, first sata is sda, 2nd is sdb and so following.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo you're polishing the wrong end of the spear. with 0 experience it's impossible to meaningfully improve this "payload". make two even if they're made throwing darts ; a/b rtest them ; pick one, make a.1 / a.2 in response whichever you picked, test those, and so following.
mircea_popescu: it's an ~empirical~ process ; !!!!NOT!!! a theoretical one.
mircea_popescu: in fact -- almost NOTHING is EVER a theoretical process.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> in fact -- almost NOTHING is EVER a theoretical process. << I'm going to decorate with this point so it gets through the skull case
mod6: thanks mircea_popescu!
BingoBoingo: In local developments the growshop across the street which made a big point of paying and having a booth at the expocannabis appears to either be shuttering or moving. Conference monkeying for the win!
mircea_popescu: maybe it's moving to be closer to the conference grounds.
mircea_popescu: (you will indulge me in observing that forcing 13yo girlies one's fixated on to
read certain things is not substantially different from forcing them to
do certain things ; especially if the fixation has entirely nothing to do with the particular little girl in question, but stems from more general
BingoBoingo: He's got balls attached. Their just dormant.
mircea_popescu: lotta things chinese did lot more honest. the black lotus retirement plan way the fuck more effectual, secure, reliable AND PLEASANT than
https://i.eprci.net/thorazine-ad ; not to mention the chinese didn't give it to children.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Replied again, but it isn't the game engines killing anything. It's that every "federation" and "governing body" that's captured competitive pursuits is femstate uterine scar tissue.
BingoBoingo: Ever since Madame Kenesaw Mountain Landis took the business out of baseball, its been downhill everywhere. Olympic fappery is simply toxic.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, now that they've made pot "legal", the chandoo-khanas where the niggers go when ?
mircea_popescu: evidently best way out for most of extant dreamers, PLUS IT WOULD SUPPORT THE TAX REVENUE!!!1
mircea_popescu: wouldn't it be ironic if that's the future, chinese-sponsored usg-"law"-immune extrateritorial teahouses in every county.
mircea_popescu: evidently our colonial experiment failed. depopulation, and recolonization manifestly necessary.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> incidentally, now that they've made pot "legal", the chandoo-khanas where the niggers go when ? << They've had theirs. The next step is something similar for the dreamers though the dreamers seem to be breaking towards approximating the same in their own squalor holes.
mircea_popescu: problem with pot is that it doesn't kill them nearly fast enough.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: The sixties didn't have contemporary ganja nor the contemporary mass of dreamers, though the baby boomer generation was pretty dreamer fucked
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> problem with pot is that it doesn't kill them nearly fast enough. << True
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> it's the evening's entertainment for these folx. plug in the hoses, fire up the coals, turn on tv for background << The hookah/hose thing is a poor delivery device for pot. mircea_popescu's centerpiece that shoots deep into the lungs is the tool for pot. The hookah's more of a high margin impulse purchase trap that doesn't draw the shops aggro like most consumer US stuff is.
mircea_popescu found a one inch cut of vanilla bean in his UAE-made "best shisha tobacco in the world". it tasted as fresh and great as one from here, even joked with the girls, "full circle for this guy"
BingoBoingo: Eastern tobacco involves ritual and some trivial amount of work. Most US hookah purchases I've seen end up on a shelf as another piece of kitsch after just a few uses.
BingoBoingo: Well, ecuador is allegedly running out of the people who can make hats for mircea_popescu. This is a problem in every field.
